Since the 20th century, electricity generated from primary energy sources such as coal, natural gas, and petroleum has been held in high regard. This is because utility companies have been able to keep prices in check.

In the 21st century however, America has seen the price of petroleum based energy increase fairly rapidly. Even to this day, 36% of U.S. energy comes from petroleum-based products, while natural gas, coal, renewable energy, and nuclear electric energy account for a significantly lower percentage.

The info-graphic below depicts which U.S. energy sources are most consumed, and where they are consumed. Have a look for yourself, and remember, if you want to save on your next utility bill remember to shut off any lights when not in use.

The graphic is very misleading, because the first bar chart looks at all energy usage, while the text above that chart implies that you're only talking about primary sources for electricity alone. Then in the third panel, you have it titled "Where does all this energy go?" when what you're really talking about is "Where does all this electricity go?", another confusing conflation of the two.
